"Yes, Uncle. You haven't been back these last two years, so you don't know. This whole thing has become a huge deal. Even some famous Daoists and Monks from the city came, but they all said there was nothing they could do. They just told everyone to stay away from that place. The younger ones like us can get used to life in the city, but you see, our fifth and sixth uncles are getting on in years. It's a hassle for them to move back and forth, and they aren't used to city life. So they can only stay here in this newly built house, and we sisters take turns coming over to look after them."

Jane Sterling cleared her throat. She was rather curious, but with the elders all speaking, she felt it wasn't her place to interrupt.
Drew Thorne knew what Jane wanted to ask and spoke up calmly.
